As you may or may not know, I am fairly new to fly tying -- and the one thing that is holding me up is the style of hook. I like mustad/gamakatsu and know which sizes I need, but what is with all the different styles? I am looking for mainly nymph and dry hooks and there seems to be 100 styles of each and dont know which ones would be the best -- advice?
edit: I am mainly looking at this site to order some, and maybe you can understand with the way its laid out how it can be confusing:
http://store.theflyshop.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=337_426_429
any good place to get hooks for a little cheaper?
Ive been looking at the dai rikis on ebay but I wish I could find hooks in packs like : Dry (25 each) - 12, 14, 16, 18 or whatever -- anyone know of deals like that?
sorry so many questions! haha
